‘This job, man, this job!’: BBC journalist vents on live TV thinking he’s off-air

Power cut broke the line from London so I couldn’t hear the presenter. Thought I’d been taken off air entirely but finished my answer and waited in case, either to allow them to realise and move on or for the sound to return. Thought I’d waited long enough…apparently not 🙈
